Want to see a heart-warming picture, taken last Thursday, of two people who obviously enjoy each other’s company?
How about this one?
What a lovely young lady! And isn’t that Senator Bernie Sanders, the Jewish fellow who is running for President?
Now let me tell you about the woman involved in this little love-fest picture.
Her name is rasha mubarak. She is the Orlando Regional Operations Coordinator for CAIR – a group deeply tied to the hamas terrorist organization which runs Gaza. And, that sweet smile notwithstanding, she is a virulent anti-semite/Israel hater of the first order.
Just how much so? Read the following excerpts from Joe Kaufman’s article at frontpagemag.com:
In September 2015, Mubarak took over the job of CAIR-Florida Orlando Coordinator from Ahmad Saleem, who had been arrested for traveling to have illegal sexual intercourse with someone whom he understood to be a twelve-year-old girl. Saleem’s trial is set for next month.
Prior to coming to CAIR, Mubarak had made a name for herself as an organizer of anti-Israel demonstrations. These events have included flags of terrorist organizations and virulently anti-Semitic signs. One handmade sign read: “Terrorist: noun: Ones that commit violent or destructive acts. SEE JEW.”
Mubarak retweets messages made by the Palestinian Information Center (PIC), the media arm of Hamas. She did this as recently as August 2015. PIC tweets and disseminates communiques, including issued violent threats against Israel, from the militant wing of Hamas, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.
In November 2014, Mubarak was a featured speaker at the Al-Awda 12th Annual International Convention, held in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Al-Awda, the Palestine Right to Return Coalition, is a US-based activist group, which opposes Israel’s right to exist and whose leaders support terrorist acts against Israelis, including Israeli civilians. Abbas Hamideh, National Vice Chairman of Al-Awda and fellow speaker at the convention, stated in October 2015, “Rest assured Zionism will be eradicated and if you’re lucky you’ll be sent back to Europe where you belong…”
In an earlier blog, I pointed out that, despite being ancestrally Jewish and claiming to be proud of it, Bernie Sanders’ has surrounded himself with a raft of major league anti-Israel advisers.
Well, at least Mr. Sanders is consistent. rasha mubarak would fit right in. Maybe if Sanders is elected, she’s in line to be his Ambassador to the United Nations.
As sickened as I am by the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency, every day the alternatives seem even worse.
I wish there were a way to exorcise this election year from existence.
